The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 66: Eighteen Hours of Sleep
This experimental workshop has not been used for at least two years, so these devices cannot be used just like that, because sometimes the damage caused by leaving production equipment idle there is more serious than the damage caused by using it frequently, so they must be thoroughly inspected and repaired.

The technical department even stopped modifying machine tools and put all the manpower into the test workshop. After a week of inspection and maintenance, the test workshop was finally put into use.

Li Huaide also laid down and gave up temporarily for this year's production tasks. Without affecting the normal tasks, he transferred all the extra manpower to the experimental workshop. People outside the experimental workshop only knew that the experimental workshop was doing experiments, but no one knew what they were specifically.

Li Huaide has repeatedly emphasized that confidentiality must be maintained.

In order to deliver this big gift before the Spring Festival, Liu Hua only went home for one or two nights a week at most, and lived in the workshop for the rest of the time.

Researching new materials is not an easy task. Not only the formula and process, but also the actual production environment, operating techniques, etc. must be considered. Some laboratories even have to pay attention to feng shui, time of day, etc. Of course, these two conditions cannot be stated explicitly now.

Repeated smelting and repeated disappointments certainly did not mean that the smelted materials were all waste, but they just did not meet Liu Hua's requirements. The technical department could only write down all the formulas and keep them as technical reserves.

At the end of December, after more than ten rounds of smelting, suitable materials were finally produced. Li Huaide almost burst into tears holding the new materials.

Liu Hua comforted him, "Although there have been many twists and turns, at least there is a result. We should be happy."

Li Huaide shook his head: "You don't understand, I'm under too much pressure. I've gambled too much for new materials. If I can't come up with it, I think I'll have to step down from this position after the new year."

"That's it." Liu Hua shook the test report in his hand. "Although our factory's testing equipment is relatively backward, the conclusion we have reached so far is that the strength of the new material is fully sufficient for our vehicles, and it is more than enough. Who knows, it can also be used in other areas."

With the materials, everyone worked overtime to complete the chassis and a series of parts that needed to be reinforced.

With the experience from last time, three days was enough. This time, Liu Hua used all the materials to make the chassis of three cars, each one bigger than the last.

Li Huaide asked in confusion: "Hua Zi, your three chassis are bigger than each other, what does that mean?"

"Four by four, six by six, and eight by eight." Liu Hua said with a smile, "You won't forget, I told you before what our car is for."

"That won't happen." Li Huaide understood instantly, frowning and saying, "What does this different chassis mean?"

"The four-by-four represents a strong assault capability, the six-by-six can carry powerful firepower support, and the eight-by-eight can meet more complex battlefield situations."

Li Huaide's expression changed immediately, and he said with a big smile on his face: "Hurry up and get it done. Then I'll drive this 8x8 to the meeting and stun those country bumpkins."

Liu Hua also asked curiously: "Which group of country bumpkins are they?"

"It's just like us, the enterprises directly under the Ministry. Although our steel rolling mill is in Beijing, its performance is not outstanding. Whenever Lao Yang went to the Ministry for a meeting, he would always be laughed at."

Li Huaide clapped his hands and said, "It's my turn this time. This is the first time I'm representing our steel mill to attend a meeting in the ministry. I have to show off my skills."

The three cars were assembled quickly and after inspection by Ge Laopao, all three cars passed all tests smoothly.

Coincidentally, in two days the Ministry of First Machine Industry will convene a summary meeting for its subordinate enterprises, and Li Huaide is even a little impatient.

After such a long period of overtime, Liu Hua was exhausted physically and mentally. He rode his bike back to the courtyard listlessly. Standing at the door was still our head of the family, Yan Fugui. Seeing that Liu Hua had not shown up for a long time, Yan Fugui turned his attention to the bicycle, but unfortunately there was nothing on it.

Yan Fugui could only shake his head. He couldn't get any advantage today.

"Hua Zi, you haven't been home for a while. Where have you been these days?"

Liu Hua shook his head listlessly: "Don't mention it. There are important tasks in the factory. I have been living in the factory these days, busy day and night. Uncle, don't block my way. I just need to lie on the bed and have a good sleep now."

Yan Fugui quickly made way for him: "Hey, hurry up, I thought your office jobs were easy, but it turns out it's not easy at all."

"Nothing about work is easy." Liu Hua shook his head: See you later, Uncle, I have to go back to sleep. I will not open my eyes until I have slept for 18 hours.

Liu Hua returned to the room, locked the door, took off his clothes, and fell asleep in less than three minutes after getting into bed, snoring loudly.

The aunties in the courtyard gathered in the courtyard and did housework. When they heard the snoring, they laughed so hard that they fell down.

"This Huazi looks quiet and gentle, but his snoring is even louder than that of my husband at home."

"If they get married, Huazi's wife will have a hard time." Another aunt said with a smile: "After the new daughter-in-law comes home, I'm afraid she won't be able to sleep well for a few days."

"You can't be sure. This new daughter-in-law can snore too. Maybe even louder than Huazi."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"You're the new bride, do you think she's a rough old woman like you? Our families are close to each other, and I can even hear you snoring at night."

Liu Hua went home to sleep at four o'clock in the afternoon of the previous day. He opened his eyes at ten o'clock the next morning and shook his head. His head hurt from all the sleep.

Wash your face and brush your teeth, then have a hearty meal at noon. Anyway, Li Huaide has given me a day off today, so I can rest for two days and relax my tense nerves.

At noon, a man ordered a big bowl of braised pork and a fish, as well as a big bowl of white rice at a state-owned restaurant. The people around him were drooling at the sight. Although they also ate at restaurants, they did not dare to be so extravagant.

In the afternoon, Liu Hua took his clothes and rode his bike to Tsinghua Pool without any complaints. Since he was going to enjoy himself, he had to find a good place to enjoy it.

Qinghua Pool is an old bathhouse in Beijing with a history of hundreds of years. Yu Qian's father is very proud of this pool. He would come to the door before dawn every day, take off his clothes, soak his head directly in the water, and earn some pocket money by the way.

I soaked for a while and almost got myself soaked, then asked the master to rub my body until it was transparent inside and out.

After the meal came up, he asked the waiter to bring a pot of good jasmine and a plate of cut radishes, which were Lao Tang Ni's favorite.

Facts have proved that after careful selection by the Yu family, Aixinjueluo Kuang's hobby is indeed extraordinary.
